Decart and Amazon: a possible $7 billion AI acquisition
Amazon is in talks to buy Decart for around $7 billion. What does this artificial intelligence company offer, and why do its AI chip tools, Lucy, and Oasis stand out?

Can a human decision prevent a catastrophe? In 1983, a false missile alert placed that question in the hands of Stanislav Petrov, the officer on duty. The system indicated an attack, but Petrov decided not to escalate the alarm. It later turned out to be false. The episode does not prove what would happen with a future artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence futures: extinction, machines in charge, or humans in someone else’s care? We explore Max Tegmark’s 12 scenarios in Life 3.0 and what they mean for our future.

Does a single implant prove that hundreds of wallets were tampered with? No. Ledger confirmed unauthorized hardware in one affected user’s wallet. Reports, meanwhile, mention hundreds of wallets and more than $86 million in stolen cryptocurrency. But that figure cannot be inferred from that single

We arrive at the “zoo.” Why did it unsettle the survey respondents so much? Because survival would be someone else’s decision. The machine would keep us alive for whatever usefulness it found in us. The author illustrates this with bees trained to detect explosives: they receive sugar when they recognize a smell and remain

Someone starts using a new hardware wallet to store their cryptocurrency. During setup, a recovery phrase appears on the screen. If someone has installed a circuit capable of reading that screen before the wallet reaches its owner, the secret could be exposed on that first use. That is the mechanism

A Ledger wallet was reportedly tampered with before reaching its owner. Ledger confirmed an unauthorized hardware implant as it investigates cryptocurrency thefts linked to devices sold by CryptoBillis.

Twenty-five billion dollars? That figure does not mean Nvidia has offered to buy Reflection AI.

Nvidia has already invested in Reflection AI, a company developing artificial intelligence for coding. It is now reportedly in talks with the company to deepen that relationship: it could invest more, buy it, or reach another kind of deal. Channel News Asia cites this information from Reuters, based on a report from the Financia

Nvidia is negotiating a possible partnership with Reflection AI, the artificial intelligence startup for coding. Will it be a new investment, an acquisition, or a deal to hire talent and license technology? Here is what is known and what remains unconfirmed.

What if the economy grew enormously, but your paycheck received almost none of that gain? In the most extreme scenario Anthropic models, the economy would be thirty-two percent larger, while workers, collectively, would receive the same amount as in a hypothetical future without artificial intelligence.

Will artificial intelligence increase productivity, or unemployment too? Anthropic outlines three scenarios for the United States economy in 2030 and analyzes how AI could change employment, wages, and the distribution of wealth.
